I live in Phoenix and got resurfaced in June of last year(2003) and i

am doing great. No pain of any kind and I am as active as i was two

years prior to the surgery. I looked around the USA including AZ, and

came to the conclusion that Dr. DeSmet was the best choice for me. I

would highly recommend him.
